This is the 5th earthseasky lightweight fleece jumper I’ve bought over the last ? could it be 20 years? Some different styles, but essentially a basic jumper. I keep buying them because they are so practical and hardwearing. I still have the other four: two are falling to bits though no fault of their own, I just wear them so much, in the bush, in town; one has paint on it that looks like I spilt breakfast on it ( no longer good enough for town); and the 4th, I just changed my mind about the colour,can’t stand it. My fault, not ESS. Should have gone with the green.
Great layering in winter. Great lightweight on summer evenings. They dries so fast. I’ve even worn them straight out of the washing machine. They just dry as you wear it! Im love this latest one made from polartec. I know it will last a long time, keep me warm and its green! And I love supporting a fantastic local company that make the best outdoor gear available. I don’t work for them, or know them, just had many good years out of a variety of their products. Love my Jetstream jacket. Best outdoor gear purchase ever.
